Has anyone here ever made a tincture from this?
Has anyone here ever used it @Tattered Old Graywolf maybeOle’ Brown Thumb has brought the subject up more than once. We have yet to try it, though. It’s relatively easy to find around here.
I never saw anything about using the young plants , thks I will research that.Really easy to **** it up and poison yourself if you take the plants too young.
The effects weren't worth the risk for me personally as a good strong Mct oil is more effective.
Most likely a Big Pharma consultantWild lettuce has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for pain relief12345. It contains lactucin and lactucopicrin, which act on the central nervous system to produce analgesic and sedative effects345. Wild lettuce can relieve muscle, joint, post-surgical pain, and painful menstruation, and soothe an irritable cough and reduce breathing difficulties15. However, there is not enough evidence to indicate that wild lettuce is safe or effective for this purpose2. Wild lettuce may be toxic and cause dangerous side effects, so always consult a qualified practitioner before using it2.
